Sir for elephantiasis there is no permanent cure in any medical system in advanced stage. Homeopathy system is very slow acting but if any disease cured by Homeo the disease never reoccur. For your wife case there is no medicine to reduce swelling only thing we have to look for symptomatic relief.

Subhas Roy

I don’t remember, as no homeopathy Doctor mention medicine on their prescription.

Ron Howe

Beer makes you better that’s a fact

Anas Noor

Arsenicum Album
Graphites
Acidum Nitricum

Anas Noor

Have you used Lycopodium?

Subhas Roy

Sorry, suffering from Elephantitis
Read Elephantitis in place of Encephalitis.

Subhas Roy

My wife,age 61yrs,is suffering from Encephalitis since last 20 years in right leg.So many homeopathy medicines were given,but of no use.Swelling and pain is too much, if medicines are stopped. Can not wear sandal.Skin becamex fatty and hard.
Pl.prescribe some homeopathy medicines ,so that pain and swelling can be checked and minimized.

Beg Asmar

Belladona also works well

Pankaj Poddar

Which remedy is applicable for inflammatory mucosa of colon

Anas Noor

Lycopodium and Colocynthis also work wonders!

Subhash Malhotra

The application of Nux always amazes me

Monica Ivey

I’m pretty sure I have gastritis as well. I don’t know if acid reflux is a symptom of it or if they are two different things. I started taking Ignatia last night.

Kathy N Tom Martin

Is gastritis the same as reflux? I was going to look up that remedy for you….and near forgot. Do any of these match, Monica Ivey, Mary Sanders? I do know that Nux V is one of the main remedies for reflux. You can google it for more info.

Manuela Di Bona

When the gastritis depends of your stress take “chamomilla vulgaris ” U0001f60a

Geeta Dash

Thank you so much sir i will try

Voltaire Fróes

Nux cômica is greater!

Eric Cohen

I love nux. It’s such a good polycrest, that if you’re in the neighborhood, it’ll work. I’ve used it for any time the patient has overdone it. I.e., too much work, too much food or drink…..just too much. My take on the attitudes a nux patient might have is, “Stop the world. I want to get off”.

Anas Noor

Hydrastis Canadensis is the first remedy in gastric ailments.
Colocynthis follows closely.
Few of the other remedies are
Nux Vomica
Robinia Pseudacacia
Argentum Nitricum
Arsenicum Album etc.
